The Song of Igor's Campaign,
Igor son of Svyatoslav and grandson of Oleg.

Early on Friday
they trampled the pagan Kuman troops
and fanned out like arrows
over the field;
they bore off fair Kuman maidens
and, with them, gold,
and brocades,
and precious samites.
By means of caparisons,
and mantlets,
and furred cloaks of leather
they started making plankings
to plank marshes
and miry spots
with all kinds of Kuman weaves.

A vermilion standard,
a white gonfalon,
a vermilion penant of [dyed] horsehair
and a silver hilt
[went] to [Igor] son of Svyatoslav.
